What only the Japanese listing gives you
- Product code and JAN: 046512 / 4969363046512. Use these to match a Japanese retailer's listing and to order parts.
- Practical drag: 3.5 kg (a separate maker figure the US table does not give).
- Spool: 46.5 mm dia. / 14.5 mm stroke.
Officially listed compatibility applies to the Japanese reel as listed in Japan. We have not found a statement from Shimano that the US version takes the same parts, so we do not say it does.
